2nd Rise of the Phoenix ஜ Action

[uccellodifuoco]

[Fire Luceti! Fire!!!

The forest is burning with flames that reach higher than many of the residents will have ever seen. There's something off in that fire thought, to begin with no animals are trying to escape from it. Another strange thing is the lack of smoke or heat that should accompany such a big fire. Yet the fire is there, as real as everything else, just lacking the normal effects it should have.

For anyone curious enough to check on it they will find they they can walk through the fire without burning or feeling even an inch warmer then before. Unless they come with evil intentions, in which chances are they will at the very least be burned a bit, and the force of the fire will increase as they approach its center. People without evil intentions will be able to waltz through it as if nothing was there, finding animals and vegetation inside the fire totally unharmed, and in what would be the center of the fire, they'll find Ikki, sitting on a rock with his Pandora Box besides him.

Eyes closed as he sits calmly, anyone capable of feeling or being affected even a bit by his Cosmos will probably notice a poke upon approaching and a great concentration in the young man.]

Royalty in my world.

[uccellodifuoco]

I see, there's not much of that left in mine. Though if they are like the ones in my world I bet they would want that law to be applied.

[Someone doesn't have a high opinion of royalty.]

[justicereigns]

I'm sure they would. Doesn't mean it would be. There's a little too much of everything else going on, and it's not like we're going to protect them from the Malnosso in any case. [A small snort.]

[uccellodifuoco]

They would be noisy about it thought. Probably noisy enough to make us want to kill them ourselves.

[Ikki tries to imagine how Saori, as she was when she was a child, would be in Luceti. The flames get more intense and angered at the thought. Athena or not he would probably end strangling her at the very least. A really bad move and one he hates himself for thinking about. Unfortunately given that there is a Saint from a century ago wandering around Ikki's sure he can't just say "that would be impossible".]

[justicereigns]

[Grunts.] I should hope not that far.

[uccellodifuoco]

[Shrugs.]

Seeing as people get revived here after some time, maybe it wouldn't be such a big loss.

[He's just being sarcastic, of course it would be a bad move in any way. Even if part of him would almost feel satisfied if given the chance.]

1/2

[justicereigns]

[Can't help laughing at that. A LOT.]

Maybe, but if you can't control their memories when they wake up out of it, it could cause a lot of long lasting problems.

[justicereigns]

Still considering it worth it? [Speculative smirk.]

[uccellodifuoco]

[Smirks challengingly, but still not serious.]

Well, they say people revive missing something, right? With some luck they would be missing those memories, or without being able to talk.

Easier to ignore that way.

[justicereigns]

That would be much too convenient for our captors to be nice enough to do us that favor I bet. [Chuckles.]

[uccellodifuoco]

Our captors are supposedly a human race as well, right? If your Tenryuubito are as noisy as the person I'm thinking of was back in the day, the Malnosso themselves may bring them here mute right from the start. They are said to watch the journals too so they would suffer them as well.

[Chuckles as well.]

[justicereigns]

Heh. Then in that case they're probably smart enough not to bother with them at all. Assuming the Malnosso do choose who they bring. And why.

[uccellodifuoco]

Good point, good point.

I've heard they bring us to the inside of the barrier but not to this world. So probably they will just leave them outside if they happen to arrive here somehow.

Don't think we'll be missing something big if that happens.

[justicereigns]

Hm. No regrets from me at least.

[uccellodifuoco]

[Ikki hums in agreement, before he gives Smoker a calculating look.]

You have a strong Cosmos. I'm curious as if you are as strong as it seems to say.

[justicereigns]

A strong what now? [Smoke from the cigars makes a little question mark symbol.]

[uccellodifuoco]

[Chuckles.]

Cosmos. An energy every living being posses, my Cosmos is what you are seeing in the form of fire around us.

[justicereigns]

And you can see mine? [Stares.]

[uccellodifuoco]

No, but I can sense it. As well as the Cosmos of everyone else inside the barrier, it's part of the training to become a Saint. To learn to control one's Cosmos and learn to sense it on others, it helps to recognize people even before they reach us.

[justicereigns]

[Scrubs face with a glove hand.] All right... I think.

I consider myself pretty strong in any case. Whether the ... er... cosmos agree and how accurately or not, I have no idea.

[uccellodifuoco]

Doesn't your world have anything like it? It can receive other names, but basically it's the energy inside of us that can be used at will after a lot of training. In my world I have heard it being called Ki too.

[Shrugs.]

Maybe I'm just hallucinating, but I would have swear that a moment ago the smoke of your cigars formed a question mark.

[justicereigns]

What? Oh. Hn. I ate the moku moku no mi. I can turn into and control smoke. [Changes an arm to a cloud of smoke, and back.]

[uccellodifuoco]

Impressive. I've never seen anything like that. I take you're immune to attacks while in smoke form?

[justicereigns]

For the most part. I'm not immune to seastone or haki.

[uccellodifuoco]

And what are those? We don't have them in my world.
